Ischemic stroke (IS) is one of the major types of cerebrovascular diseases causing
neurological morbidity and mortality worldwide. In the pathophysiological process of IS …

PURPOSE OF REVIEW This article reviews the actual indications for mechanical
thrombectomy in patients with acute ischemic stroke and how the opportunities for …

Background and aim Neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and lymphocyte-monocyte ratio
(LMR) are associated with clinical outcomes in malignancy, cardiovascular disease and …

Optimizing cerebral perfusion is key to rescuing salvageable ischemic brain tissue. Despite
being an important determinant of cerebral perfusion, there are no effective guidelines for …

Objective Robust arterial collaterals are associated with successful reperfusion after
thrombectomy treatment of acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion (AIS-LVO) …

Background and Purpose: We aim to examine effects of collateral status and post-
thrombectomy reperfusion on final infarct distribution and early functional outcome in …

The cerebral collaterals play an important role in penumbral tissue sustenance after an
acute ischaemic stroke. Recent studies have demonstrated the potential role of collaterals in …

Abstract Digital Subtraction Angiography (DSA) is the gold-standard imaging modality in
acute cerebrovascular diagnosis. The role of DSA has become increasingly prominent since …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Cortical venous outflow has emerged as a robust measure
of collateral blood flow in acute ischemic stroke. The addition of deep venous drainage to …

Background Studies have suggested that collateral status modifies the effect of successful
reperfusion on functional outcome after endovascular therapy (EVT). We aimed to assess …
